Your chance of drawing here

Wyoming Game and Fish Department has not offered a deer license in Hunt Area 7 in any draw we hold. It has a page because the agency still publishes harvest for it — the Wyoming deer hunts that are on offer are drawn elsewhere.

How the hunting has gone

What Wyoming Game and Fish Department publishes for this area after each season — harvest statistics for everyone who hunted it, not draw odds and not a forecast. Wyoming's figures are estimates from a voluntary post-season survey of license holders, extrapolated to every license issued — not a count of animals checked in.
